Caution: Baby under construction

Well...it has been about a month since I last updated this blog and I thought it was about time to do so. The whole second trimester feels like a breeze and we are just coasting through it. It was right before our last appointment that I began to feel any sort of movement. They weren't big at all and felt more like muscle spasms than baby movement. About a week after that appointment, so around 20 weeks, I really began to notice our little boy move more and more. The reason for me not being able to feel a whole lot of baby movement around 19 weeks was due to my placenta being in the front by my belly instead of towards the back. Since then movements have become bigger and even more noticeable. Will has even been able to feel them which he loves since it makes him a part of the whole pregnancy thing. Everytime Colin is around when Will feels my belly then Colin moves Will's hand and wants to feel for himself even though he doesn't leave his hand on long enough to feel anything. He is just a curious, big brother! :) I'm pretty sure that hearing the first heartbeat and feeling those first movements are the best thing about being pregnant until that little bundle of joy graces us with his presence! Other than that not a whole lot has been happening. We are just going through our normal routine of Will going to work, me going to class, and Colin going to daycare. I'm not as tired as I was during the first trimester but, man, do I get worn out easily! I definitely enjoy my nap time when I can get one in! ;) When I'm not napping or in class you can usually find me eating some sort of salty, sour or spicy food like Mexican food. Same thing happened with Colin and I guess our baby boy #2 enjoys it as well. I can't complain except when I get heartburn but that isn't enough to keep me away from Mexican food! Anyway, that is all we have for now about baby #2. We have an appointment in about a week and we will update you with more info soon!
